The map shown above is an example of a continuously graded circle map. This kind of map uses dots to represent data, but the dots can come in all sizes. The map above is showing the campaign efforts of Obama and McCain in the United States presidential elections. Each dot and its size represents the impact Obama (blue) or McCain (red) had on a county in America.
